No Buying Unnecessary Toiletries in November Challenge

adilade

I'm in:j

oct went so fast, I don't think I had any INs:eek:

but I have to put that right so here is my list of ins:o:

avon christmas care lip balm- I can't resist lip balm...

avon creme to powder foundation- I actually needed this, my tinted moisturiser is almost finished (having said that, it will probably last for months:rotfl:)

clearskin invisible blemish treatment- necessary as I have none and have been getting very attractive angry red spots recently

clearskin thermal maskx2- I am using my last planet spa mask atm and these were 3 for £6 (together with the blemish treatment)

face wipes x2- to test, thank you Rosemary (I think?) for posting the link to this:D

and elf eyeliner- my friend is ordering from the website so I asked her to get me this as I would like to try a few elf things, but its not worth paying the postage. I think it is out of stock but will be coming in the next couple of weeks

oh dear, that's not a very good start

also just ordered some clothes from h&m, and have an order from hmv coming tomorrow. I NEED to stop spending (and christmas is still to come..)

hope you're all well:) and congrats Trudij:T

Welcome newbies :hello:

UU's this eve...

Hello Kitty body wash & Natural Collection Body Wash mango and papaya - this NC body wash/shower gel is delishhh! would buy it again...for the summertime though nice holiday scent!

Fiasco55

My first UU of November - GUM hairspray. This is my HG hairspray and have several in my stash bought at 99p each

I need to take off my nail polish as it now really badly chipped. Not impressed at all with the Next NV. I will donate this to one of the girls groups tomorrow.

So two outs.

Hi all. Can I be in again please?! I don't get to post as much as I'd like but this challenge keeps me a bit on the straight and narrow.

All I can think of that I may need this month is:

Skin toner
Shampoo
Conditioner
Toothpaste
Mouthwash

Nothing glamorous. I'm hoping to be really good as saving for a wedding and Christmas. Next year, I hope to be able to treat myself to some nice make up and perfume for the wedding and maybe a few facials as I'm suffering from sensitive skin.

I love the stash lists, just can't quite bring myself to do one. At least it's going down. I don't mind freebie ins but I'll try to refrain from buying.

Good luck everyone.

sarah thanks for setting this up again.

i'm back in, i didn't post much last month as i wasn't online so much but i did manage 8 UU's, bringing my net stash to 153 items, only 3 off my target 150 before next may, maybe i should change my target to 125 items as i seem to be slowing down at the moment.
i almost sucumbed to the avon hand cream offer but resisted and i'm using a pot of body lotion, at least it will help get it down.

I'm in too please

Was AWOL last month but managed a few UU's - too many too remember but too few to make my list shorter than war & peace :rotfl::rotfl::rotfl:

well I managed the 1st day with no INNs - good start

hoping to use up a couple of bits over the coming week.

Planning an INN though - has anyone used Soap and Glory Hot cloth cleanser? I fancied the Liz Earle one but S&G is cheaper!

I've used the S & G hot cloth cleanser - I found it ok but prefer the SD Vitamin E hot cloth cleanser that I'm on now - much milder on my sensitive skin:D

Can I be the first to wish everyone a very Merry Christmas too??? :D:D:D:D:D:D:D
There's a woman down the road from me that's already decorated her house - looks like Blackpool flippin Illuminations!!!! :eek::eek::eek:

UU - Perfume Parlour Eternity spray - WBA but i've got loads of perfumes to use up first

Also UU a few impulse sprays recently and WBA but i've got 100s of them to use before I consider buying any more

My Bad - I'll hunt down the last month it was posted and add it to the first post

I know what you mean about wanting to graduate but not wanting to leave - I think I'm gonna look on it like AA - I might complete my challenge but I'll still need the support to make sure I don't slip again

ETA: re-added the graduate list and also added links to the last 6 months challenge threads so everyone can refer back for stash lists/product reviews etc if they need to

Ah, don't worry about it - we all forget things. The main thing is that I now have something to aspire to! :rotfl:
